About this listen

In this episode of Haven Hub Life, host Lolly dives deep into the lesser-known aspects of grief, beyond the commonly discussed five stages. She shares her personal experience of unexpectedly losing her mother to cancer and the overwhelming journey of handling logistics, fielding bizarre requests, and finding strength amidst the guilt and audacity of others. Lolly emphasises that grief is not a linear process but a constantly evolving story that requires authenticity and self-compassion. She speaks about the challenges of being expected to perform grief for others, the intrusion of people seeking to fill the void left by the caregiver, and the importance of setting boundaries to protect your space and emotions. Lolly offers valuable insights and tools for navigating grief, including scripts for establishing boundaries at work and home. She encourages listeners to honour their unique grieving process and find ways to express their truth amidst the chaos. The episode serves as a reminder that grief is a personal journey that deserves time, space, and understanding.
